FAQs
This section provides answers to commonly asked questions, helping users find the information they need quickly and easily.
What is a Block Producer?
A block producer on the XPR Network is a verified server operator elected by token holders to validate transactions, create new blocks, and cover network costs so regular users experience zero gas fees.
How Block Producers Work
- Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS): The network uses a voting system instead of energy-heavy mining.
- Top 21 Active Producers: Token holders vote for their trusted choices. Only the top 21 ranked block producers actively produce blocks at any given time.
- Standby Producers: Other qualified servers wait on standby to step in and help secure the network.
Main Responsibilities
- Validating Data: They process incoming network actions and write verified data onto the blockchain.
- Maintaining Infrastructure: They run high-performance servers with strong uptime.
- Network Governance: They vote on network proposals and help guide the future of the ecosystem.
- Providing APIs: They run public data services to help apps connect smoothly.
Why They Matter for Users
- Zero Gas Fees: Block producers pay for network resources behind the scenes. This lets end users send transfers and run apps for free.
- Daily Rewards: Active block producers earn newly minted XPR tokens for their work.
- Community Voting: When you stake your XPR tokens in a wallet like WebAuth, you must vote for 4 block producers to earn your own staking rewards.
